BelSun_420 Hey mates Itโs time to choose!
If youโve already checked out my profile, you probably remember that some time ago I attempted my very first bonsai, a project I really enjoyed and that I think turned out quite nicely! ๐
For a while now, Iโve been thinking about giving it another shotโฆ and guess what? Kannabia reached out to me to create a new bonsai using one of their strains!
I want to thank them for this opportunity, itโs my first grow with sponsored seeds, and Iโm excited to start this new project ๐
The main idea behind this project is to use a Buddha statue as the base, with the roots resting in its hands and eventually growing downwards into the pot. Iโm still deciding on the pot (theyโre a bit pricey, to be honest).
To make this a little more fun, Iโm going to leave 3 comments with the strains I could use for this grow.
The one with the most likes by April 10th will be the one Iโll turn into a bonsai! or should I say Kannabonsai?! ๐
( If there are no votesโฆ well, Iโll just pick one myself ๐
)
Here are the links to the strains :

Today, April 25th, I decided to symbolically start the germination of the seed โ itโs Freedom Day here in Portugal! Hopefully, weโll see many more โApril 25thsโ when it comes to this beautiful plant that connects us!
For germination, Iโm testing Kannabiaโs seed germinator. Basically, you moisten the cotton discs with 15ml of water, place the seeds inside, and add the germination liquid provided by Kannabia. Letโs see how effective this method is! So far, I really like the little detail of the top disc showing the temperature.

Thereโs not much to say about last Week, I just tried to keep the soil moist, and this week will be the same. She had a good growth in height, which isn't ideal for bonsai training, so I moved her closer to the light to prevent further stretching. Maybe by the end of the week, I can start training her, but most likely only next week, she's still very young. โบ๏ธ๐๐งก
-------------------------------------------------------------------

I started applying Bio RHIZOTONIC by Canna. I diluted about 1.5 ml in 1 liter of water.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

So, I decided to do something with the bonsai to take my mind off work hahaha. It's the first time I'm using these bonsai wires, and I haven't quite got the hang of it yet, which made me mess with the plant a bit too much, but nothing serious. Let's see how she recovers by the end of the week. She was getting too tall, so this should also slow down her growth a bitโI hope (never thought I'd say that) ๐คฃ
As for the wires, maybe they're not meant to be used at this stage. It's quite tricky to put them onโyou either do it directly while holding the plant at the same time, or you wrap the wire around a stick or something like a mold and then wrap it around the plant, but you end up shaking the plant a lot anyway. I need to research some techniques for this.๐ค

BelSun_420 I started training her at the end of last week, sheโs growing well, which honestly makes me curious to try growing this Ginger again but not as a bonsai. This week, Iโll be transplanting her into the final pot and placing her in the Buddhaโs hands. โบ๏ธ
(I'm going to use the same pot from the last bonsai. They're a bit expensive)
Iโll share more about that on the 27th or 28th!

BelSun_420 Hey folks,
Transplant done today, May 30th, into the final pot. Now sheโs in Buddhaโs hands ๐๏ธ๐
This one was tricky to transferโI knew it would be tough since I let the roots grow too much due to lack of time to properly focus on this project and the extra time wait for the order with the Leca base to arrive!
That made it hard to separate the soil from the rootball and position it over Buddha. I really shouldโve done it at week two, or starting in a smaller pot to avoid all that root chaos! ๐
But hey, letโs see how she responds and what the final result will be!
๐ค๐ป๐๐งก

31/05/2025
When I cleaned the roots, she wilted a bitโas expectedโbut just a few hours later, that same night, her leaves were perky again, showing that everything went smoothly and she's full of strength! ๐ Today I cut a small branch and a leaf that were growing in the direction I want to twist the plant into a spiral, as you can see in the video. A few more hours and she should be perky again ๐

BelSun_420 Hey Growmies,
Last week I transplanted her into the final pot and everything went well โ though I shouldโve done it a bit earlier to handle the roots more easily. Anyway, it went fine. Later in the week, I tried to do a bit more training, but things almost went south and gave me a real scare for a few days ๐ฌ
Since the transplant was still fresh, she wasnโt stable enough yet, and the training stressed her out โ she completely wilted for a while. But sheโs back now, shining in all her glory ๐งกโจ๐งก

BelSun_420 Hey Growmies,
Another week for our Kannabonsai โ and weโre officially in flowering mode! ๐ฅ
Unfortunately, some leaves started showing signs of stress last week. Iโm still not 100% sure what caused it, but I tried to fix it with a small potassium boost and she responded with slight signs of nutrient excess. So I went back to plain water only.
Other than that, she's looking healthy and developing nicely, although I wish some branches had thickened up a bit more by now. I trimmed a few weaker ones to help focus her energy on the top buds.
I believe the last LST session was two days ago โ from now on itโs just letting her bloom and slowly exposing more roots.
Note for my next bonsai:
When placing it in Buddhaโs hands, I definitely need to find a more stable way to anchor the base to the pot. Right now itโs wobbly, so I have to be twice as careful when moving it around. Wouldnโt want to send Buddha tumbling! ๐

BelSun_420 Hey Growmies,
Weโre kicking off another week โ and weโre officially in flowering mode now! ๐
Sheโs showing a few signs of deficiencies from the past weeks, but only on the bigger fan leaves (which Iโll be removing sooner or later anyway). The ones supporting the buds are still looking good ๐
This week Iโll slowly start clearing out the soil and see how she responds, checking if sheโs rooted enough into the new pot to hold herself up once the base soil is removed and itโs just the roots keeping her in place.
All in all, Iโm happy with this girl ๐๐งก๐

BelSun_420 Hey Growmies,
My lovely bonsai ๐งก๐ Unfortunately, I no longer have space in the tent, so sheโs been spending most of her time on my balcony, where sheโs soaking up the sun and growing nicely. But since sheโs out on the balcony, sheโs a bit out of sight, and I havenโt been as attentive. There were a few days when I didnโt position her well, and she ended up in the shade, which made her stretch towards the Buddhaโwhen I actually wanted her to grow in the opposite direction! ๐
Now Iโm trying to carefully adjust her and see if I can lean her back the other way! Iโve been extra cautious with her, and I havenโt exposed the roots yet, because like I mentioned in previous weeks, sheโs not super stable in her pot. I need to be really careful not to snap or loosen her!๐งก

BelSun_420 Hey Growmies,
Started exposing the roots todayโthis is how weโre looking so far ๐งก
From now on, itโs all about slowly uncovering more roots and trimming the finer ones that wonโt affect growth, while being super careful not to loosen the plant or damage any main roots.
I usually do this part with a thin stick to gently loosen the soil, plus a brush and an old toothbrush...it works for me! ๐
As for the buds, theyโre actually developing pretty nicely considering itโs a bonsai, and overall the plant looks healthy and happy. ๐งก๐

Wouldn't photoperiod seeds perhaps work better because of the longer growth phase? Just asking :)
likes 6
BelSun_420commented1mo ago
@Kushycat, Both work well, although I believe autos are a bit easier when it comes to managing time and space. But doing it with photoperiods is definitely more challenging โ and thatโs exactly what Iโm aiming for in my next bonsai project. I just need to upgrade my setup so I can grow the bonsai without taking space from the others in the tent. Thatโs also why Iโve only done it with autos so far โ the shorter grow time allows me to keep the plant in the tent for less time and even have it out for a while, like Iโm doing now, and still get solid development.
